He likely smiled because, if he played a role in his brother’s jihad massacre, he thinks he has earned great blessings from Allah.
“Terrorist’s brother arrested: Dramatic moment armed police swoop to arrest Ismail Abedi, 23, over his sibling’s arena massacre,” by Rachael Burford, Thomas Burrows, Rory Tingle, Joseph Curtis, Abe Hawken, Richard Spillett and Nick Fagge, Mailonline, May 24, 2017:
This is the moment anti-terror police swooped on Salman Abedi’s brother in the street and arrested him in connection with last night’s ISIS terror attack in Manchester Arena.
Footage shows officers leading the handcuffed Ismail Abedi, 23, to a police van outside a Morrisons supermarket in Chorlton-Cum-Hardy, south Manchester at about 10.30am this morning.
Witnesses said the IT manager was ordered to ‘get on the ground’ and that he was seen smiling as a team of officers, who had arrived in a black Mercedes, made the arrest.
It came just hours after his terrorist brother Salman Abedi, 22, slaughtered 22 people and injured another 119 after an Ariana Grande concert.
Abedi, a former business student at Salford University, grew up in the Whalley Range area of the city. He was registered as having lived with his mother Samia Tabbal, father Ramadan, a former airport security worker, and brother, Ismail Abedi, who was born in Westminster in 1993.
But everything changed in 2011 when his father abruptly left his job and home to fight in Libya, leaving his family to fend for themselves, according to a local imam.
Abedi and his brothers appear to have followed in his footsteps by sharing stories of British jihadis fighting in Syria on social networks and even praying and ‘chanting’ in the street.
Photos and video show raids at Abedi’s home in Fallowfield, where a controlled explosion took place, and his brother Ismail’s address, near where he was arrested.
Forensic officers, carrying a manual called ‘Know Your Chemicals’, were seen exiting the younger Abedi brother’s address after the door was blown off.
Chemical experts were seen outside with specialist instruments amid fears that he could have obtained radioactive material.
It was also claimed last night that he had travelled by train from London to Manchester on Monday in advance of the attacks.
It raised suspicions that he may have met co-conspirators or been supplied with his explosive device by an as-yet-unidentified bombmaker….
Abedi, the third of four children by Libyan refugees who came to the UK to escape the Gaddafi regime, was known to authorities. He was born in the city and neighbours described him as an abrasive, tall and skinny Manchester United fan.
His brother, who was being questioned by police, is married to a maths teacher and worked for Park Cake Bakeries in Oldham until January. An online CV also shows Ismail Abedi was an IT engineer for Manchester Islamic Centre from 2012 until 2016.
Why didn’t they call him out on his “extremism”?
VictimlessCriminal says
Challenging a bully is only done by those who are prepared to get into a fight. In the UK, it appears that the reluctant combatant is our government and the bully is the well-organised and obviously highly aggressive band of Islamic brothers (along with the silent support of their sisters, wives and parents).

UK: Manchester jihad mass murderer’s older brother smiles as he is arrested for role in massacre
He likely smiled because, if he played a role in his brother’s jihad massacre, he thinks he has earned great blessings from Allah.
……………………..
Indeed so. What makes a pious Muslim smile more than contemplating having aided in mass murder–especially of children?
God, I hate Islam.
Alarmed Pig Farmer says
Of course he smiled, he won with a job well done. Despite what our president says, he’s a winner. Manchester, England, the UK, Europe and most of the Infidel world has been put on notice, taking in another dosage of terror. Victory. In fairness to President Trump, none of his advisors have told him about Jannat, the Islamic porno heaven, the sex magnet that makes all this possible. You can bet that General “Lap Dog” McMaster and Sebastian Gorka don’t even know about Jannat.
Walter Sieruk says
One of the reason that the older brother of the murderous jihad bomber in Manchester was smiling after his arrest by the police is that Islam has the effect of creating a cognition that good is viewed as “evil” and the evil is viewed and “good.” This shows the strong demonic influence of Islam. That older brother might be smiling because he might be proud of his brother’s suicide/homicide bombing in Manchester Maybe he even engaged in Islamic scheming with his younger brother to “help” him murder and maim so many people. This further shows the deceptive power of Islam that those Muslims actually see murder as “good ” instead of evil and non-violence as “evil.” About such heinous and dangerous delusion and wickedness the Bible teaches “Woe to those who call evil good and good evil…” Isaiah 5:20.

Steve Klein says
Did anyone see the woman this morning on Fox & Friends, a guest from Britain, who said they are sick and tired of their government siding with the jihad? She is an activist. Does anyone know her name?
overman says
@Steve Klein – Was it Katie Hopkins. She goes on Fox sometimes and is very outspoken against lslam.
She got reported to police yesterday for calling the manchester attack the ‘Final Solution’ – [a nazi reference to muslims, of course].
RichardL says
She also apologised for using these words, as she should. Anyone can misspeak. Hannity has her on, but Sean is a little bit too uneducated about islam.
VictimlessCriminal says
Yes, Katie Hopkins. She writes for the Daily Mail online and presents LBC radio programmes. She is a champion for the highly frustrated and silenced masses of Britain.
Ex Muslim Against Islam says
So now he’s going to kept in comfortable detention by the tax money of the parents who’s children he helped murder!? No wonder the sick bastard is smiling!
overman says
Probably the only UK party that slams lslam. Paul Weston’s Liberty GB party. He says in this video [about last nights attack] that Robert and Pam are banned from Britain only because of the establishment’s fear of lslam:
Paul Weston: Islamic Terror in Manchester:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hnKXpeBq_ts
Richard says
Every word Paul Weston said is true. Many centuries ago, the Christian Britons were facing depredations from the Vikings, so they invited Angels and Saxons to come over from Germany and settle in Britain to protect them. To quote a song from the King and I, “If allies are strong with power to protect me, might they not protect me out of all I own?” That is precisely what the Angles nd Saxons did – which is why British became known as Anglo-Saxons. The original Britons were relegated to the mountains of Wales, and so hated the people they had invited in that they refused to try to convert them to Christianity, hoping they would burn in hell forever. All this sounds a lot like Britain today. It is paranoia when you think a group of people are out to kill you … unless you see them doing it at after day. Then it is insanity to pretend the threat does not exist.

He’s looking forward to his slap on the wrist, three pork-less meals a day, and a rug to prey on.
Being a servant of the beast, he feels invincible. Little does he know what is really coming to him soon.

When daddy went to fight in the sand box (against the west) leaving his family to welfare of the state. Maybe it is time deport, father leaves family for sand box send family back to sand box problem solved. All this traveling from the easy life on the dole in the West back to the sand box(any Islamic sh*t hole can be the sand box) if you leave you should not be let back in. The sons going back and forth to the sand boxes enough! I have not wished to visit any of the sand boxes have a travel ban on them. Real refuges do not want to go back, Jews did not want to visit Germany under Hitler,s rule, real refuges are greatful for the host country that took them in.
overman says
Look at these muslim morons slapping themselves in a manchester street LOL – no doubt the effects of ramadan or over-fasting.

Just what kind of smell that must be on the street, from the looks of them the should fast more!
abad says
Yeah can you imagine the smell LOL
Islam, the Religion that Forbids Soap and Water
smh
Musalmaanmasala says
Be afraid Britishers. Be very afraid. That is not the sound of just beating of chests but the sound of things to come for Britain. These are fanatics who will do anything to promote their evil cult.
Bill W. says
Not”the” I meant” they” in above post. I guess that is as close to music as that they get .I wonder how long they study that musical master piece before they got it right.
overman says
Yeah LOL
lt just occurred to me – isn’t that what gorrilla’s do? Although, l don’t want to insult gorrilla’s – they’re gentle creatures.
overman says
ls it some kind of mating ritual? – no women around of course.
Alarmed Pig Farmer says
Exactly what I was thinking. They should come on over to the U.S. where homosexual marriage is legal now. The SCOTUS put on their hard hats and went deep mining to pull out that nugget, a hidden right that’d been there all along.
Iam Disgusted says
This is horrible. Just horrific. In our country. I had no idea this goes on. Men, and only men btw, who will never assimilate but surely know every law and trick in the book to collect welfare and other taxpayer funded benefits so they can continue to do this in the streets. Look at them. Who wants a job when you can hang out with your buddies indulging in this drivel?
abad says
Deport the entire family back to Syria. At some point the UK needs to grow a backbone and stand up to the Evil of Islam.
Jay says
These vile people want to die for Allah, we should execute them without the slightest compunction, after a fair trial and if convicted. WHY FEED THEM FOR DECADES WHILE THEY TAKE OVER OUR PRISON SYSTEMS?

“Ismail Abedi was an IT engineer”
Was he now. That might be useful skills for a terrorist. Was he the bombmaker?
Ethel Red says
Holy smokes, this is no laughing matter. A mass slaughter is coming your way and I hope it is these Weirdos. You Brits had better arm yourselves or get someone in power who can take care of this for you. We in Canada had better start a more rigorous immigration policy and stop all Islamics into our country.
